JISC has launched a consultation on Internet Archaeology, the journal published by the Council for British Archaeology. JISC is considering an investment that would allow IA to become OA. The consultation is to learn the value of IA to users, the importance of OA for IA, and whether this investment should stand high or low on JISC's priority list. Responses are due by April 7, 2006.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
